Ps Is Windows 10 just as easy to reformat as Windows 7 was earlier?
I am older now.
colunms, alf... is all in the calibre config folder, in appdata/roaming
( in windows, appdata is a hidden folder so you may have to tweak folder options to see it ).
once you find it, copy it like any other folder and remember where it goes, so you can put it back into the same location

windows 10 is much easier and quicker than windows 7 to reformat
if its still working you can just go to settings and select reset my pc...
if not, you can download a free installer from microsoft, to a USB stick, and boot from that

Kindle for PC is separate from calibre, you will need an installer, for old version 1.17 ideally, then you disable updates as soon as you open it.
they are not too hard to find. ask again here if google cannot locate one for you
( you only need the old version if you want to make it easy to move books from K for PC into calibre )
